Thomas Pagès, Torstein Horgmo

(12) Pagès is earning raves in the freestyle motocross world for his innovation and style despite not attempting backflips. He leads the 2013 Red Bull X-Fighters after finishing in second last year.

(21) Five-time XG Snowboard Big Air medalist (three gold, two silver) Torstein Horgmo made history when he became the first to land a triple flip in May 2010. Snowboarders have been catching up ever since. Multiple riders landed the triple cork at XG Aspen in 2013, but Torstein scored Big Air gold and has more triple variations than anyone: frontside 1440, backside 1440 and switch backside 1440.
